Why did you vote against your school budget?

Voters in eight school districts rejected their school budgets this week, an unusually high number for Central New York.

Experts in today's story in The Post-Standard say they believe there are a variety of reasons for the defeats.

The economy.

A big tax increase.

Some confusion.

If you voted against the budget, we want to hear from you on why you voted no.

Are the experts right?
